Roof Cleaning Services Lordshill Common

Investing in roof cleaning is a highly effective method to both enhance the curb appeal of your property and extend the life of your roofing materials. The cleaning process involves thoroughly removing growths such as algae, moss, and lichens, as well as unsightly black streaks and stains.
The difference a professional roof clean makes is dramatic; dull, weather-stained tiles that have darkened over time will typically be restored to their original vibrant colour, creating a striking before-and-after effect.

Homeowners frequently choose to engage a professional Roof Cleaning or External Property Cleaning service in Lordshill Common, primarily to improve their home's aesthetics. But beyond appearances, removing thick moss deposits is essential to prevent potential damage and water ingress into the home.

Roof Moss Removal Lordshill Common

The primary advantage of professional roof cleaning lies in its ability to effectively remove moss buildup and prevent its return for years to come. For your roof to function correctly, rainwater must flow unobstructed from the surface through gutters and downspouts, directing water safely away from your property. This is why roof cleaning is essential.

Moss accumulation creates three significant problems:

Functions as a water-absorbing material, holding moisture against the roof
When moss between tiles absorbs water and subsequently freezes, it can lead to tile damage and cracking
Blocks the natural drainage of rainwater across the roof surface.

Professional roof cleaners in Lordshill Common employ two primary moss removal techniques. The first involves high-pressure washing to eliminate moss and debris, restoring tiles to their original appearance. The second method uses specialized chemical treatments applied across the entire roof surface to eliminate moss, algae, and lichen while removing stains and returning the roof to a like-new condition.

UpClean provides both roof cleaning methodologies across the UK - high-pressure cleaning and gentle softwash treatments. Our service selection depends on your roof's current state and your personal preferences.

Restore the Look of Your Roof

Our proven roof cleaning method will revive the look of an old and dirty roof into one that appears freshly installed. By removing all the moss, muck, and residue, we reveal the natural shade and fresh look of the tiles.

Prevent Damage & Water Ingress

Allowing moss to accumulate on a roof can gradually harm the roof surface and even result in leaks by widening gaps. Clearing away moss from the roof can stop water-related problems.

Prevent Regrowth

Following the roof cleaning process, it is given a biocidal wash to stop the regrowth of moss, lichen, and algae. This final treatment boosts long-term protection and prolongs its life.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Lordshill Common

Curious about soft wash roof cleaning? This method employs a chemical-based "wet and forget" approach, primarily using sodium hypochlorite to remove moss, algae, lichen, and grime from roof tiles or slates.

Unlike traditional high-pressure methods, soft washing gently treats your roof, significantly reducing the risk of damage, especially important for older or fragile roofing materials. The cleaning results become fully visible after a few weeks as the chemical solution continues its work.

Soft washing is also beneficial for cleaning K-Rend and similar types of render on walls. Following the cleaning and rinse-off stage, professionals apply a biocide treatment to ensure your roof remains free from future moss and algae growth.

Eco Friendly Roof Tile Cleaning

Pressure washing your roof is among the most environmentally responsible cleaning techniques available in Lordshill Common. Since this method exclusively uses water (H₂O), it naturally and effectively clears away moss, algae, dirt, and lichen without chemicals.

Despite occasional reports of roof damage from high-pressure methods, the risk is minimised by hiring experienced, professionally trained, and insured cleaners who use the correct equipment to ensure optimal outcomes.

Apart from cleaning patios and driveways, pressure washing provides superior results for roofs by effectively removing moss, algae, lichen, and other growths, revitalising tiles or slates to their original appearance. To prevent regrowth of moss and algae, a biocide is usually applied after cleaning. A detailed inspection precedes any cleaning, and if roof tiles are found to be older or fragile, professionals will opt for a safer, softer cleaning method.

UpClean Roof Cleaners – What to Expect from our Service in Lordshill Common

With our team, we specialise in clearing moss from roof tiles without causing damage. We’re committed to providing a reliable experience and delivering a clean, professional result for every customer.

Roof Cleaning is one of our specialist services for domestic homes. We also recognise that when on-site at someone’s home, it’s important to be respectful at all times.

Here’s how we approach it:



Site Survey

Ahead of any cleaning, we’ll conduct a detailed assessment of the roof’s condition, taking photos for a before-and-after comparison. We’ll also let you know if any issues should be addressed before we proceed.



Industry Compliant

Upon arrival, we’ll meet you and present a copy of our insurance, confirming that we’re fully insured in case of any incident, such as broken roof tiles.



Customer Liaise

We will advise you how long the job should take to complete the work and explain our steps.



Preparation

Prior to starting Roof Cleaning and clearing moss, ground sheeting is placed over any delicate garden areas if a softwash solution is being used.



Blockage Prevention

We temporarily seal the downspouts to stop moss runoff from entering the drainage system, especially when carrying out moss removal. The gutters are cleared after the main roof work.



First Stage - Roof Cleaning

At this point we remove lichen from the roof, remove built-up moss, and perform roof algae removal—all in one go.



Second Stage - Biocide Treatment

When the roof-washing is complete, we apply a strong biocide to the whole surface to prevent the regrowth of any unwanted roof growth such as algae or moss.



Third Stage - Clean up

All surrounding areas are thoroughly cleaned, including the roof drainage system, and any debris is either composted or taken away.



Satisfied Customer

To wrap up, we take pictures of the final outcome, and the customer gives final approval only when entirely happy with the outcome.

Our Other Services



K-Rend Cleaning

We rely on soft washing techniques to clean render surfaces. After clearing away unsightly staining—the ones that can leave walls looking tired—the render regains its original look.

Once we’ve completed K-Rend cleaning, the difference is clear.



Gutter Cleaning

Regular gutter maintenance is important to keeping rainwater away from a building. If a gutter becomes overfilled, water can run down the exterior of the property and may even leak into the roof—all of which, if left untreated, can lead to thousands of pounds in property damage over time.

We offer full Gutter Cleaning services and can both clear and clean your gutters for domestic and business properties.



Patio & Driveway cleaning

A lot of effort and money goes into making their gardens, driveways, and patios look great using block paving. These surfaces, like most that are subject to the unpredictable British weather, can become extremely dirty over time.

Our Patio & Driveway cleaning services include both pressure washing and chemical-assisted soft wash treatments to revive the clean look of the stone.



Cladding Cleaning

Be it glass, external cladding will eventually get dirty over time and can even develop discolouration if neglected for too long.

As part of our exterior cleaning services, we provide a complete cladding wash-down designed to not only clean the surface, but also restore it to as close to its former state as possible.



UPVC Cleaning

Over time, UPVC tends to fade or stain, mostly due to the buildup of green residue. Our UPVC Cleaning method removes this dirt and filth, returning it to its fresh, clean state.



Conservatory Cleaning

Just like with other areas, after investing heavily in your conservatory, it’s a shame to see it get dirty and dull due to grime and staining.

That’s why our gentle yet effective Conservatory Cleaning techniques clear away algae and grime, restoring your conservatory to its fresh appearance.



Soft Washing

We use two main types of soft wash cleaning. One involves Hypo, while the second uses a environmentally conscious treatment. The method used depends on the type of surface and the specific site conditions.



Pressure Washing

Our pressure washing is ideal for roofs, cladding, patios, and driveways when a more intensive and eco-friendly cleaning method is needed.
